Chapter 962: Battle on with the Support of Battle Gains (1/2)

As the bone flew back to his hand, Nie Tian couldn’t help but exclaim, “Unbelievable!”

With a single strike, the bone had managed to penetrate the eighth grade Lizardman’s skull, killing him in the blink of an eye.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The five fierce spirits flew out after the dead Lizardman that was drifting farther and farther away, hoping to devour his soul.

Lizardman souls weren’t weak at all. In fact, their inability to secure their souls after their fleshly bodies were destroyed and seek opportunities to be reborn was only because they hadn’t solved the profound mysteries of souls yet.

Some powerful outsider races that understood souls as deeply as the Phantasms also had their own special ways of gaining a chance at reincarnation.

However, the Lizardmen couldn’t do such a thing yet. Once their fleshly bodies perished, they were gone for good.

As the evil spirits flew off to devour the dead Lizardman’s soul, Nie Tian looked down at the bone in his hand, and marveled at its formidable might.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder why it had almost drained him of all of his flesh power the moment it had left his hand, even though it wasn’t particularly heavy as he held it.

Then, he examined himself thoroughlyand discovered that the few drops of Blood Essence he had just regenerated were all gone, along with the vigorous flesh power within his internal organs, blood, and bones.

“A single strike consumed almost all of my fleshly energies... Even though this peculiar weapon is wildly destructive, its consumption is just as incredible. Luckily for me, I’m not a pure outsider. Other than my flesh power, I still have my spiritual power that I can use.

“Otherwise, I’d have lost the ability to fight after launching such a strike.

“When I’ve run out of flesh power, the fastest way to recover is to...”

His eyes lit up as he suddenly thought of the corpse of that eighth grade Lizardman. Then, he turned to Lou Hongyan and said, “Would you carry over me to that corpse?”

Lou Hongyan was confused. “But he’s already dead.”

“I know he is,” Nie Tian said, looking determined.

“Alright...” Lou Hongyan’s torn flame domain then flew towards the drifting Lizardman corpse like a flaming cloud.

At this moment, a grayish-green soul in the shape of a Lizardman had already risen from that corpse.

The five evil spirits were munching on it like hungry ghosts, clawing, splitting, and devouring away.

The evil spirits roared as they expanded to a small extent.

“Those evil spirits are yours?” Lou Hongyan asked curiously. “Why do they carry so many negative energies?”

“They came from a Spirit Pearl forged by the Phantasms,” Huang Jinnan explained before Nie Tian could. He had fought alongside Nie Tian in the Bloody Grave Mountain Range, and witnessed the Spirit Pearl’s wonders.

“Oh, that’s how it is!” Lou Hongyan marveled.

FZZZ!

Like a bolt of lightning, the Star Boat suddenly shot out of Lou Hongyan’s flame domain, before piercing into the Lizardman’s huge corpse.

It inched deeper into the eighth grade Lizardman’s foul-smelling flesh.

The corpse not only kept Nie Tian from the impurities in the starry river, but also blocked Huang Jinnan and Lou Hongyan’s sight.

“Life Drain!”

One scarlet blood string after another flew out of Nie Tian, slithering into what felt like a sea of flesh and blood.

Since the Lizardman had just died, there was still rich flesh power within his remains, which would take hundreds of years to completely scatter and vanish.

However, as Nie Tian activated Life Drain, the Lizardman’s residual flesh power was rapidly drained.

BLUB! BLUB!

The scarlet blood strings soon expanded from the size of hairs to the size of fingers.

Moments later, they expanded strangely to the size of human arms.

Flesh power that was rich and pure poured madly towards Nie Tian. After being refined by his unique bloodline, it was soon turned into vigorous life force.

His qi and blood was replenished like a dried well being filled to the brim by a running stream.

“This eighth grade Lizardman died only moments ago, however the amount of life force it generated is still very impressive!”
